Those Mesmerising Robot Arms are Back and Playing With Trains Now

It seems the best way to impress someone looking for a set of industrial robotic arms is to demo them playing with kid's toys. First DENSO Robotics did it with slot cars, and now ABB gets in on the action with this model train demo.

You'd think that demoing these IRB140 robots and their synced MultiMove software would be best accomplished by showing them assembling machines or soldering electronics, but this is pretty entertaining so you won't hear us complain. [YouTube via The Awesomer]
